Life at the Top

Although Celine was complaining about being taken advantage of, her smile never left her face.

She sat relaxedly in front of Jasper. As Julian had only prepared breakfast for Jasper, she reached over to take a sip from Jasper’s cup of milk.

When Celine put the cup back down and saw Jasper staring at her, she said, “What, you can’t bring yourself to let me have even a sip of milk after taking advantage of me?”

Taking his eyes away from the spot of milk at the corner of Celine’s lips, Jasper laughed dryly as he said, “Of course, I can. I can even treat you to a meal every day if you want to.”

“Oh, are you hinting that you want me as your sugar baby?” Celine said flirtatiously as she gazed at Jasper.

Jasper marveled at how as a woman, Celine did not even bat an eyelash when she talked about the vilest things.

“Hey, how did it feel just now? I’m much more curvaceous than your girlfriend, right?” Celine said as she snickered.

“Have you always been this open?” Jasper asked.

“Depends on my mood.”

Celine then continued carelessly, “But I’m usually much more serious.”

Just then, Jasper’s phone rang.

Vita Layne was calling.

At this point, Vita’s appointment documents had been finalized and he was now serving as the office manager for ICBS’ Waterhoof City branch. All this had caused Vita to be in a great mood lately.

Now that the problems of his collaboration with Jasper had been settled, Vita made phone calls to both John and Jasper to invite them to dinner.

Jasper had no plans today and no reason to decline Vita’s invitation.

He had just hung up when Celine asked curiously, “You have dinner plans tonight?”
